Why Choose the Ilme CDCM16N Male Insert?
The Ilme CDCM16N is a robust 16-pole plus earth male connector insert designed for reliable multipole electrical connections in industrial machinery, automation equipment and control systems. Part of the established Ilme CDC series, it uses crimp termination and is rated at 16 A and 250 V.
This insert is specifically intended as the second 16-pole insert in compatible size 66.40 connector assemblies, providing contact positions 17–32 plus protective earth. Used together with the corresponding first insert, it enables a high-density 32-pole connector configuration while retaining the advantages of individually crimped contacts.
The crimp connection system provides secure, repeatable conductor termination and is particularly well suited to production wiring and industrial installations where vibration resistance and consistent connection quality are important. The CDCM16N is the male insert version and is designed to mate with the corresponding female contact arrangement within a compatible Ilme rectangular connector assembly.

Reliable Crimp Connections for Industrial Equipment
Crimp connector systems provide a mechanically secure electrical termination by compressing the contact around the conductor using the appropriate crimping tool. This method produces consistent connections without relying on terminal screws and is particularly useful for repetitive production wiring, machine building and installations exposed to vibration.
The Ilme CDCM16N extends a compatible connector arrangement with positions 17–32, allowing two 16-pole sections to form a larger multipole interface. This modular arrangement simplifies the connection and disconnection of multiple circuits during equipment installation, servicing and replacement.
